    If you dislike English as much as you make out, then why not stick to the older languages and stop bothering us?

    We are here to discuss English usage. Intelligent discussion is not
    furthered by such comments as "English is Munglish". What is that supposed
    to contribute to a conversation?

    I suggest you try alt.neandertal.usage


    I'll lay money he's one of the Hindu supremacists who believe that
    nothing including the electronic computer has actually been invented, as opposed to rediscovered, since the time of the Mahabharata and that thus
    the world would be so much better off if the only writing system were Devanagari as perfected by Krishna and it were used to write only Hindi.

    So he keeps spamming our groups so that we'll realise how much his gods
    despise everything else and convert--even though we'd ALL be Dalit if we
    were to do so.

    Was.

    Note the date of the post. He hasn't posted for several months now,
    not even in alt.fan.jai-maharaj so perhaps he's dead or gone away.

    Some have said his real name was Jay Stevens and he lived in the USA,
    but nevertheless supported Hindutva, which is an analog(ue) of
    Islamism, Zionism, Hellenism and Christianism.
